A patron (that's that we call library visitors) came in this morning looking for a print copy of Brenner & Rector's the Kidney. Turns out we have only the 2004 edition, and that we had hadn't purchased the 2008 edition. Oh dear! Or maybe not. We do have online access to the most recent edition of that book via UCSF Library's MD Consult, an electronic content aggregator I think of as an electronic "aggravator" because their PDFs take so long to load.
Aggravation aside, the question remains: does the library need to spend $400 on a new edition of this title? If we buy it, will you use it? Please advise.
